? School hlotes s

Following his talk at the grade school building the other morning, Rev. Arbaugh asked if there were any questions about his story, which had been about Lot’s wife turning into a pillar of salt. Grace Reiftbold raised her hand, and, when permitted to speak, asked: “Do you spose they ever found any use for that salt?”’ Following another one of the religious talks, which had been the story of Noah, when the pupils were asked if there were any questions, Katherine Armstrong said: “I’ve always wondered, how did Noah keep the animals from eating each other up?” o It seems to be a common opinion nowadays that what the world lacks is leaders—but how could you expect to develop many with humanity on a diet of spinach and fruit salad. . —o Why hasn’t some enterprising Yankee invented minature horse racing on a merry-go-round?

Indiana Marches Forward... as an Industrial State AMERICAN industry today is finding its natural center in the niiddle west. Indiana and bordering territory is in the heart of this industrial development. - Indiana is today an industrial state. Growth of industry in many parts of the state and particularly in the northern region has been rapid and extensive. The great industrial district at the southern end of Lake Michigan has been called ’ "The Workshop of America.” Here are located one of the largest s(eel producing centers in the United States and the greatest oil refinery center in the middle west. Here also are built railroad passenger and freight cars, automobiles and hundreds of other products used in the factory, the office, the home and on the farm. This territory is the meeting place of coal and crofis-roads of the continent. It is the natural economic location for the nation’s production center. Lake Michigan on the north furnishes water transportation on thfe Great Lakes and to the Atlantic ocean. The Ohio river on the south furnishes water transportation to the Gulf. The state is criss-crossed with a network of railroads. Raw' materials ft are easilv accessible and the territory is surrounded by markets for the finished products. To the south of the great industrial district of northern Indiana, the march of industry is making its way. What formerly were rural communities have become industrial centers. Many industries have located factories* in the smaller communities of central Indiana where working and > living conditions have been bettered for their employes. In southern Indiana are the Indiana limestone quarries and mills and the coal mines. Serving this great territory with electric power and light, gas and transportation service are the subsidiaries of the Midland United Company. A few years ago, a large part of the state J was served by small isolated public utility companies. These companies were acquired and placed under one centralized management. Communities were interconnected with electric transnUission lines and in many instances with high pressure gas pipe lines. New, modern gas manufacturing and electric generating stations were built. Small companies were merged into groups of larger and stronger subsidiaries which today rendeir adequate, reliable and efficient utility service in a large part of the state, making possible further industrial expansion. This is the first of a series of advertisements in which will be described how these companies have been brought together under one co-ordinated management and control with the result that service has been bettered, rates have been reduced and adequate and efficient public utility service has made possible the growth of communities on a scale never before possible* O I ■ ; ■ - . . ’ • >/. : ■ ■ ■5 ■ - \ ■■■ . . < .
